Para Maria

The food is great, but not sure what's going on with the service as it started off great but dwindled quickly.They automatically charge a service fee, which is fine as long as you're able to provide the appropriate service. It felt off that you had to request for very simple things like water, and no one checks in during the meal.I would like to recommend the venue, but the service was just a hurdle that I am unable to overcome

Arriving in Boston this evening I decided to low key it by having dinner at the hotel restaurant. The atmosphere is nice, opening up to the water (the bartender nicely offered to close the sliding doors leading to outdoor dining if it was chilly). I tried the tuna tartar and the mussels. Tuna passable, mussels good -flavorful with sausage bites and charred tomatoes. A few things seemed slightly off - the plating of the mussels and a cloth napkins that had a rancid smell. Not the best if I'm googling "why would a napkin smell rancid" during a meal. I would eat at the bar again (maybe sans napkin?) if I were staying at the hotel but would not go out of way to return.

Food and cocktails were good, but service was not. The waitress was slow to greet us and take our order, she forgot to put in our appetizers, and our water glasses stayed empty for half the meal. It was a Wednesday evening and the restaurant wasn't packed.

We stopped in for drinks & a small bite & we're not disappointed at all! The drinks were unique, tasty, & a great value! Our waitress was super friendly & offered great recommendations. The restaurant was clean & modern.

I went here for patio cocktails on a Wednesday evening and had a great time! I got the lychee drink and my boyfriend got the hibiscus drink. Both were great and well garnished. We also got the croquetas and those were tasty as well! Great outdoor drinking/snacking experience overall.

Went to Para Maria with my friends to share some snacks and a couple pitchers of sangria. It wasn't anything out of the ordinary but not a bad experience either. I'd say my favorite items were the croquettes and the taquitos. Service was friendly and quick, and there are plenty of larger tables so good for groups.

Our recent visit to Para Maria with a group of 11 colleagues left us thoroughly impressed and eager to share a glowing review. The star of the show was undoubtedly the appetizers.

I've been to Para Maria a few times now and I always enjoy the food every time I go. I loved the paella and the steak. The chimichurri sauce they used was so delicious! The restaurant has an open vibe to it and I've never been sat right next to other people. It's a great spot for both large groups or small.

The envoy must be one of my favorite hotels. Somehow, they managed to keep this little secret right behind the check-in desk. I went today to go eat at the rooftop but upon getting there it's not quite how we used to be so not too much seating where you can like dine and they do have a short like lunch menu. But the delightful young lady instructed me that downstairs had a restaurant and they served brunch, so that's what I decided to do. The ambiance and the decor are so cute that it's a little spot where you can chill full bar, good music, lots of vibes. The menus are something freaking else. Everything is astronomy based, and you get to pick your food through zodiac signs. The drink menu is a little pricey, but they do have a full bar, and you can get whatever you want. They specialize in like tacos other than that there was like some salads, and honestly I can't really really remember quite what else I did take pictures of the menus so you can take a look at that. Of course it's Seaport so parking is scarce. I know that before you go anywhere. Our server was super cool, but it was weird that for a period of time, no one was nowhere to be found, and the place was pretty much empty. However, they were super sweet and really kind, so shout out to them. My fish tacos were absolutely freaking delicious. Whatever that sauce is that they put on it combined with that mango is delicious. I usually don't like cooked foods or fruits in anything that I eat. But this was definitely a great combination. The card in the assado tacos was okay, but it's definitely good worth it. Just for reference is $15 for the three little tacos you see here, but they do pack flavors, some do with that information as you will.

The food is unbelievably good here. Very nicely designed interior as well. Can be quiet or a bit louder depending on when you go.
